Blogiversary Giveaway

This month marks one year since I first started blogging –
my first “blogiversary” for those up with the lingo!I can’t believe how quickly it has gone. It has been a great year, in
which I have learnt a LOT, much of which has been as a result of tips and
advice and sewalongs and tutorials and all other manner of joys which are so
graciously and selflessly offered by the blogging community. I really do feel
that it is a community, and I am really glad to be a part of it. I have blogged
previously about how much I have achieved in this last year, and how grateful I am for the blogosphere, so I won’t bore you with all that again. Instead let’s get on
to the good stuff – the giveaway(s)!

For your delight I offer up the following two lengths of fabric.

You may recognise this first fabric, as I used it to make my New Look 6557 dress. As a result of my compulsive over-buying of fabric, I have 1.1m of this left over to giveaway. It is 160 cm wide, so there is quite a lot to play with here. It's a great summery print, and would be great for a top or other small garment, or even a bag or two!

This second fabric I absolutely adore. I spotted it on my favourite fabric stall in Leicester Market and bought a substantial length for myself. I also couldn't resist buying a bit extra to give away to one lucky winner! This fabric is 1m x 1.4m so again, quite a nice length with multiple uses. I can think of lots of small projects this fun print would be fabulous for!

To be in with a chance to win either of these fabulous fabrics you need to be a follower of my blog and leave a comment below,
stating which fabric you would like to win, and what you would make with it if
you won. This giveaway is open internationally, and will close on Tuesday 27th
March at midnight UK time. Good luck everyone!

Happy Blogversary! I think the first fabric is the purdiest fabric I've seen in a long time. I adore oranges and reds, particularly on a black background! I want to wear it and would make a waistcoat to wear over my white linen pirate shirt, yummo. And that would probalby leave enough to make a bag, or a matching waistcoat for MrC...
